We’re in Victoria, having Christmas with my mom. We went for the traditional this year – we bought her a shredder. It does CDs! Yes, it’s an old fashioned Christmas here in the capital city. Ho ho ho!

Ed and I got our traditional gift certificates (HMV for him, Body Shop for me) – and unexpectedly, a whole lot of cash each. I’m trying to decide if I want to be good and put on my credit card, or have fun with it instead. Obviously the fun would be more .. well, fun, but there’s also something to be said for FISCAL RESPONSIBILITY (namely that it sucks and is not nearly as awesome as new pretty things).

Tomorrow morning we’re off to Seattle via the San Juan Islands (sorry Matt)!
